Otto von Wachter was an Austrian General in German Nazi army. During the WWII, he was the Governor of Krakow then Governor of Galicia, and a leader of the Jewish extermination campaign. Wachter was also art connoisseur - he extends his collections with works looted from Krakow and Lviv, where he moves later to establish a division of SS-Galizien.
